Article alerts

This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.

If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Sources in FURs

Right now I'm going through Category:Comics images lacking original published source and sorting the images by work group. The world related images are at Category:Comics images lacking original published source/World.

If it's ok, I'm going to ad this clean up to the "to do" list.

WP 1.0 bot announcement

This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the WP 1.0 assessment system. On Saturday, January 23, 2010, the WP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the WP 1.0 project homepage. — Carl (CBM · talk) 04:11, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

An Ideal World GA nom

An Ideal World as been nominated for GA. Any help in adding sourcing on just a second set of eyes for style/content is appreciated. (Emperor (talk) 15:26, 7 April 2010 (UTC))

Thanks for adding this! Any help would be appreciated, especially if there seems to be a messy sentence or a prose issue. I'm a bit excited, too; this would be the first manhua to make it to GA, if it were to pass. WhiteArcticWolf (talk) 19:17, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Well, it has passed! This not only marks the first manhua to make it to GA status, but I believe it's also the first for this work group. WhiteArcticWolf (talk) 00:28, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

Yonen Buzz

Hi. I was wondering if it was alright if the OEL manga infobox could be used on Yonen Buzz even through it was originally published in German. The current infobox (Infobox comic book title) really isn't adequate. It doesn't cover that it was released in volumes not issues, and that the prequel was originally serialized in the German magazine Daisuki—very much like an OEL manga, except that it was published in German. Any ideas? Kaguya-chan (talk) 13:45, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

I don't see why not^^ The "OEL" infobox seems to cover all graphic novels of the sort. WhiteArcticWolf (talk) 20:18, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Awesome. :) Kaguya-chan (talk) 16:15, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Pop Culture Shock

Hi,

For those not already aware Pop Culture Shock is closing and thus the Manga Recon disbanded. While PCS Manga Recon was mostly manga reviews there was still plenty of manwha & OEL covered.

I archived through WebCite all related manga, manwha & OEL reviews and the archive is currently in my user space but may move into the manga project subpages in any future.

If you have question don't hesitate to ask me. --KrebMarkt 19:22, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
